This can be done as an Emacs batch command:
find [a-z]*/ \( -name \*.hs -o -name \*.lhs \) -exec \
emacs --batch -q --no-site-file {} \
-f universal-argument -f whitespace-cleanup -f save-buffer \;
Note that the above command only performs replacement within Haskell
files, not the TeX sources nor test scripts.
I suggest that you then commit each directory as a separate patch, to
reduce the huuuuuuge merge conflict pain that you will get. (This is a
compromise; recording each file separately would be better for merging
but bloat the change log amazingly).
find [a-z]*/ -depth -type d -exec \
darcs record -am "Whitespace cleanup in {}." {} \;
Note the -depth above ensures that "per directory" doesn't record child
dirs, by recording those children first (depth-first search).
Finally, the glob [a-z]*/ is a kludgy way of saying "find . -name _darcs
-prune -o ...".

Oops, you're a step ahead of me :-)
